"Very biased" is a "very stupid" way to say they sometimes use some slightly subjective but very benign writing to explain scientific theory. Calling them "very biased" to put them in the same realm as political propagandists is obvious asshattery.

They said humans are greedy and expansionist so we might expect these traits in alien civilizations. Stop the presses.

The whole thing reeks of fake outrage to stop Kurzgesagt from being shown in schools because science is wokeism or some nonsense.

I watched your video. Pretty weak. I'll give them that their first entry of Kurzgesagt, all the way back in 2016, calling big pharma our lord and savior was an obvious bought plug. I actually went back and watched the original video and it's clearly a fluff piece. But the rest of it is straw grasping conspiracy theory to suggest that anything Bill Gates or his billionaire pals touches is obviously tainted. Oh, and the completely unrelated to the video connection between Epstein and Gates was the cherry on the top.

The crux of the entire argument seems to revolve around "They're promoting tech and research that billionaires stand to benefit from."

No. Shit.

Billionaires are literally in the business of investing in potential growth sectors. And if you haven't noticed, the biggest growth sectors of the 21st century are environmental, energy, and tech.
